I’m conducting some research with regard to shooters who own Scout Rifles or who are interested in Scout Rifles. I’m of the opinion that even though the Scout Rifle is considered a one-rifle answer or the only rifle you need, most who own or want one have a lot of other guns and are avid shooters and hunters. If you own a Scout or Scout-like Rifle, or if you are considering a Scout Rifle, I would appreciate your help by answering the poll questions below. Everything is anonymous so the NSA is not going to come and kick down your door.<\/p>\n
